There are two triangles: a small one to the left and a big one, which includes the small one. They both have a common angle (the leftmost angle) and since (we can assume) the two columns meet the floor at right angles, they both have two equal angles. This means they are similar (AAA).

Let the distance of the base of the stairs to the tallest column be d.

Because matching sides of similar triangles are in the same ratio,
4 / 6 = d / (6 + 12)
4 / 6 = d / 18
(4 * 18) / 6 = d
d = 12

The answer is C

Find the perimeter of the figure to the nearest hundredth.
Kryger [21]

Hello!

Your answer should be 26.85.

We can use the formula of pi d or 2 pi r for the circumference.

You would get 5 pi.

But since its not a full circle you would divide it in half and get 2.5 pi.

2.5 pi is equal to 7.85.

Now we can use the equation 7.85 + 7 + 7 + 5

That would equal our answer... 26.85!

Hope this helps!

How do you get 40y from the difference of 2 squares with the problem (5y+4+3x)(5y+4-3x)? I understand distribution method. I don
otez555 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(5y+4+3x)(5y+4-3x) = (5y+4)² - (3x)²......(from the difference of 2 squares )

by identity : (a+b)(a-b) = a² - b²

in this exercice ; a = 5y+4 and b  = 3x

the pie factory sells an apple pie with a diameter of 16 in. for $10.99. What's the approximate cost per square inch of surface
AURORKA [14]
I'm going to assume the crust covered by the dosenot matter because the total surface area cannot be found without the depth of the pie.

So the surface are is the area of the top of the pie, the top of the pie is circular and is equal to 2\pir²

The diameter is the sum of 2 radii, hence r=8

D=12
  = 2r =12
r=8

With the raduis the area can be found
A= 2\pir²
A=2\pi8² 
A=2(64)\pi
A=128\pi

If the pie cost 10.99, the cost per inch can be found by dividing the area by cost

cost/inch =128 \pi/10.99
cost/inch =11.64\pi
               = 11.64(3.14)
               = 36.57

The pie costs 36 cents per square inch
